On May 29, 2026, Taylor Hornby discovered a critical forgery vulnerability in the Zcash Orchard funding pool. Taylor Hornby reported the vulnerability to the Zcash Open Development Lab, and all parties collaborated to complete the fix on June 2. This vulnerability could be exploited to secretly create an unlimited number of forged ZEC within Zcash Orchard. Due to the privacy features of Orchard, it is impossible to cryptographically prove whether the vulnerability was exploited before the fix was deployed. The vulnerability had existed since the activation of Orchard in May 2022, until an emergency fix was deployed on June 1, 2026.With the assistance of AI tools, Taylor Hornby wrote a complete exploit and generated unlimited and undetectable forged ZEC in a local testing environment. Currently, Shielded Labs is collaborating with other Zcash developers to explore network upgrade proposals that would allow anyone to verify the integrity of Zcash's supply.

Plume has partnered with the Ethereum liquid staking protocol ether.fi to launch a new RWA yield vault, providing ether.fi users with opportunities to earn tokenized returns on real-world assets. Plume stated that ether.fi has exclusively allocated $100 million to this vault, sourced from its liquidity provider base, as well as managed capital from existing yield products such as liquid ETH, liquid USD, and liquid BTC.A representative from ether.fi mentioned that there is strong market demand for yield products with institutional-level risk control and lower DeFi exposure. The vault will be directly integrated into the ether.fi application, allowing users to access previously more institutionally-focused RWA yields in a familiar interface. Plume noted that as DeFi volatility and security risks increase, users are turning to more stable on-chain yield sources.

According to CoinDesk, Tom Lee, Head of Research at Fundstrat and Chairman of Bitmine, stated at the Proof of Talk conference in Paris that he expects Ethereum to eventually reach $250,000, with artificial intelligence and tokenization driving significant changes in financial infrastructure. Lee pointed out that with the arrival of the machine-to-machine economy, Ethereum will transition from a speculative digital asset to a major global currency for payment automation and computational processing power.Bitmine recently acquired 111,942 ETH, increasing its holdings to nearly 5.4 million ETH, accounting for about 4.47% of the circulating supply. Lee stated that Bitmine is now eligible for inclusion in the Russell 1000 index, with its staking model outperforming holding spot ETH.

He also noted that the current bearish sentiment indicates the market bottom for Bitcoin and Ethereum, suggesting that selling during bearish times is akin to selling at the bottom.

This proposal has been included in the Ethereum Foundation's protocol team's Strawmap roadmap, marking the first protocol fork on that roadmap.
